Missions at Bayside
At Bayside, being on mission is who we are. We are called to bring the Kingdom of God into every sphere of our lives. Missions is not a separate “thing” to do or ministry to be involved in, it’s at the heart of who we are. We believe God has called us to be an influence on our city and beyond for Jesus Christ.
We believe that serving others regardless of what it costs us is the heart of love, and we want people to know of the love of Jesus Christ through us. At the heart of our mission strategy is serving other people in the name of Jesus. We invite you to be on mission with us, as we meet practical needs and point others to Jesus.
Our missions partners include: IMB, NAMB, Wildcat, FCA, Bible in the Schools, Operation Christmas Child, Evan and Rachael Bachtold (Bayside missionaries in Ireland), Be A Blessing Ministries (Dominican Republic), Ed Funderburk Ministries
There are several ways you can be on mission and we want to help you be creative in your sphere of influence to show people the love of Jesus.
